After outlining the object and workings of the union Mr. Dilcher says that instead of seeking to antagonize the operators the miners' union is striving for a better condition of affairs; the union wants to give the operator what is rightfully his, but it will tight to the last ditch for what it considers the rights of the men. The southern Indiana mining situation Is unchanged. Washington Irvlnjr Hovrard Dead. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Tex., July 9. One of the most extraordinary occurrences transpired here Thursday night late, and the means employed to thwart a marriage were novel, but expensive. Two special trains were chartered, one by the father and the other by the brother of the bride, which speeded here from Weatherford, thirty-two miles, but arrived after the wedding ceremony had been performed. The parties to this sensa tional episode were James M. Brannon and Miss Edith Bowie, of Weatherford, who have been sweethearts for years. The parties who made such heroic efforts to reac.i here on the two specials In order to intercept the elopers were Capt. G. M. Bowie and his son Henry. The family objected to the marriage of Miss Bowie to young Brannon on the grounds that he was a Catholic, and It Is said this was the only ground of the objection, as Brannon was an exemplary young man and well to do financially. Brannon, with his sweetheart, came through to Fort Worth in a buggy, making the distance in about three hours. On reaching here they were assisted in their endeavors by a mutual friend, who drove them to a Justice of the peace and the matrimonial knot was soon tied, and afterward they repaired to the Fort Worth Hotel. The father of the girl was soon on their trail. but getting wind of his presence in the city, the newly married couple was spir ited away to a private boarding house, where they safely eludtd the Irate father and brother, who returned to Weatherford on their two special trains, outwitted by the two loving hearts. The young people experienced a similar trouble last Christmas, when they went to Dallas, expecting to get married, but the father of the young woman followed and Intercepted his daughter before the mar riage could be performed. Mr. Bowie picked up his daughter, carried her to a carriage and was driven to a west-bound Texas & Pacific train and returned to Weatherford Both families are among the best and wealthiest people of Weatherford, and the episode has occasioned quite a sensation. The bride Is the daughter of the well known lumber merchant, Capt. G. M. Bowlo, of Weatherford. and the groom is the son cf Father Brannon. of the same place, his father having become a priest after the demise of young Brannon s mother. MRS.

HAS TOO MANY WIVES

SIIAII OF PERSIA IS REPORTED TO HAVE LOST HIS REASON. He Has or 800 Helpmeets and Im Addlnar Twenty-Five 3Ialdens Each Year to Ills Harem. ST. LOUIS, July 9. The Republic's New York correspondent says: The Shah of Per sia has become insane. He Is one of the most interesting Oriental despots in the world, more so in many respects than the Sultan of Turkey, because he Is less sub ject to European and other outside In fluences. The cause of his Insanity is said to be the Immense number of his wives. According to the last accounts they num bered 800. many of them not being, strictly speaking, wives. The difficulty of caring for them In the manner prescribed by the cus toms of Persia has wrecked the unhappy despot's mind. A Russian officer, who has Just returned from Teheran, the political capital of Persia, report; fhai the Shah has become mentally nr.d physically Incapacitated and that he su iters from hallucinations. He finds his chief amusement with telephones, which are Instal'ed throughout the palace. The Shah's name Is Muzaffer-Ed-DIn, and he Is described by his own documents as "The King of Kings, the Enthroned of Two Cycles." Muzaffer-Ed-Dln occupies the throne of Xerxes, Darius, Artaxerxes and other famous monarchs in whose time Persia was the greatest country in the wTorld. That was before the rise of the Greek and Roman power. The Shah is not descended from those old monarchs, but he rules over the same people and claims all their powers. He is of Turkish blood and belongs to the Chllte dynasty of the Kadjars. He Is, or was, a very rigid Mussulman. The present Shah has occupied the throne of Persia only three years. His father, the famous Nasr-Ed-Dln, was assassinated three years ago by a religious fanatic. This monarch was famous because he paid a visit to Europe, during which he created both amusement and embarrasoment by his comments on social conditions, the dress and behavior of women and forms of government. Having gone over the magnificent property of the Duke of Portland, he remarked to the Prince of Wales: "Why doesn't your mother cut off this man's head and take his property? 1 should do so in Persia." When the governor of the bank of England placed a million dollars' worth of bank notes in his hands to let him feel what they were like, the Shah thought It was a slight tribute of his Majesty's greatness, and held onto the wad. It was only with great difficulty that he could be prevailed on to relinquish It. Muzaffer-Ed-Din was the second son of this monarch, but the eldest by a wife of royal blood. His elder brother, Lil-Ea-Sultan, is a man of strong and violent character and a power in the land. It is expected that he will soon grasp at the throne. That is why MuzafXer's insanity is regarded as a grave event from a European political joint of view. The fact that the present Shah of Persia really occupies the throne of Xerxes is evidenced by the way in which he chooses his wives. The process is carried out today almost exaetlv n It la riocnHhori In "The Book of Esther," which referred to Kiirs nine 01 -verxes. When Xerxes deposed Vashtl, all the maidens in the kingdom were brought before him in a long procession, in order that he might choose from them. To-day the most beautiful girls in Persia are paraded before the Shah once a year.

"Twlce thr,ce they wind their horns and then the spectacle for which all have waited bursts upon the view.

Forward they come toward the open incisure, singing as they go, and preceded J " oesirewmg ine way with flowers in every direction. In the closely massed group of 100 human beings are gathered the fairest maidens in all Persia.

Again the trumpeters peal forth a note, the royal salute and then every head is touched to the ground at the spectacle of an insignificant little man rapidly making his way across the courtyard, preceded by the SIfar Salar, In his magnificent robes or office, and followed by an escort of magnificent officialism. And this, the most unpretentious and unassuming of them all, is The Sun of the Universe the one toward whom all eyes are turned in reverential adoration, the Shah of Shahs, he whose word Is law to millions of people. "It is almost impossible to perceive hl3 body, so closely is he covered with magnificent Jewels, not a portion of his garment but reflects every color of the rainbow, a vision of opulence for which the rest of Persia lies burled In squalor and filth. "He has paused for an Instant now and the end is at hand. Slowly preceding him marches the Slfar Salar. at each step taking a maiden by the hand and raising her to face her monarch. A nod of approval or one of negation, not a word spoken, not one word of love or affection, and hearts are sickened or filled with secret Joy. "The 'Sun hides his face for a moment, the great Shah parses on without a chanpre In his stole countenance. Persia has offered up the fairest In her land to her sovereign, the royal will Is satisfied. Twifiy. five hearts are filled with an abundance of Joy, the life and happiness of seventy-five are blotted out. Once more that dwarfed, almost hideous little body shuffles uneasily across the courtyard, the trumpeters blare forth the regal salute, all Is over." It "Is not unusual for a Shah to have a hundred or more children. The present one ha? seventeen of unmixed royal blood, but the others are not counted accurately. The Shah has ?200,0fO,0C0 of treasure in the form of precious stones, largely rubles and pearls. These he keeps In glass Jars, so that he can always tell at a glance whether many have been stolen. If only half a dozen or so disappear he does not worry, but If the pile In the glass Jar falls an inch or two he has somebody's head cut off. WIHTCMXG A XEGRO. A New Vse Has Been Found for Electricity. Baltimore Sun. The Fremdenblatt of Vienna reports the case of a "white negro" resident of the Austrian capital, whose singular transformation from a colored Into a white, or, rather, whitened person, has created a sensation among the public of the old Kaiserstadt, and Is being studied with Increasing Interest by the scientists of Its university. The question seems to be whether this extraordinary phenomenon is merely a "freak of nature" or may furnish the basis for further experiments in "whlte-wasfclng." as it were, black-skinned individuals by an electric treatment whose boundless applicability bids fair to afford hopes for the gradual whitening of whole peoples, like our colored natives and colonial fellow-citizens, Filipinos, Hawallans, not to mention Samoans. etc. All that is necessary would be the establishment of electrical plants of sufficient capacity and power to provide whole negro communities with the needed electric baths. We refrain from expatiating on the anthropological and political vistas thus opened by the accidental discovery of a Viennese physician, but hasten to state the recorded ''miracle," for such it appears to be, according to the Fremdenblatt. Two years ago an Austrian merchant who had been on a business trio to Africa brought back with him from Egypt Ibual Lacho, a Sudanese negro, aged nineteen years. 8peedliy acclimated, the black Immigrant soon learned the German dialect

Address all ccnnunlcallons of the Viennese end surprised them by his clever manners and the elegant dress he displayed In the cafes and upon the "promenade." During last autumn he became affected by nervous troubles, which a famous neuropathist of Vienna subjected to electrical treatment. Ibual Lac ho' s condition began to improve from day to day, and, strange to relate, in the same proportion as the disease seemed to leave him there disappeared the black dye of his skin. Paler and paler he grew until, through the stages of Peruvian and Egyptian mummy coloration and the pallid tinge of embalmed beef, he blanched Into gaining the true Caucasian complexion. Ibual's doctor explains the decoloration of his patient from a process by which the black pigment In his skin was disintegrated and finally eliminated through electricity. This chief coloring matter, melanin, or piarmentum nigrum, found in the eye, the hair and the skin, contains Iron and strongly reacts upon electric application. The hope is expressed that the United States government, which, together with the most successful whitewashing institutions it already possesses, boasts of the largest negro constituency among all civilized nations on the globe, will not delay giving its attention and further exploitation to the Viennese physician's miraculous experiment. It might solve the race problem, stop lynching and secure for another generation the negro's vote. REPLY TO TRACEWELL. Clvll-ServIce Commission Dlsasjreea with the Controller. WASHINGTON, July 9. The Civil-service Commission has made public Its letter to the secretary of the treasury of June 23 last, asking that the controller of the treasury be requested to review his recent decision In the matter of the alleged Illegal appointment of deputy United States marshals. In the course of his decision the controller said: "I will not go back of the certificate of appointment by the head of a department or appointing power, where no direct law has been violated and attempt to ascertain whether such officer. In making such appointment, has disregarded some rule or regulation of the Civil-service Commission or some rule or regulation of his own regarding the classified service." The controller makes a clear distinction between the violation of law by the President and the violation of the rules and regulations made by him, and says: "I prefer to let the responsibility rest where it rightfully belongs and follow the precedent of years In ray office to recognize the certificate of appointment of the head of a department or other appointing power to office or place when such appointment Is not in violation of law or without authority of law. You are authorized to pay such deputy if his account in all other respects Is correct." The commissioners In their letter contend that the appointments under consideration were made in violation of the express terms of the law, and quote numerous authorities to show that the rules and regulations have all the force and effect of law, and that exceptions to these rules and regulations can be legally made only In the manner provided by the law. The letrer concludes as fcliows: "Thus, from another point of view also, we must arrive at the same conclusion as indicated in the early part of this decisionnamely (1) that the controller does not Intend to hold that so long as a position once in the classified service is not excepted from the requirements Incident thereto, and appointment can be made to such position without compliance with the provisions of the ctvll-service law and rules requiring such appointment to be made through certification by the commission; and (2) that conseqeuntly. the only question left at Issue is how, if at all, a position one In the classified service caa be leyally

A., that violet glass will locate the flash of a gun using smokeless powder, General A. It. Bufflngton, chief of ordnance of the War Department, has ordered a number of "goggles and binoculars for use in the Philippines." Colonel Smart has made extensive experiments on colored glass for this purpose at the army medical museum. Speaking of his experiments to-day he said: "I used glasses of various colors, such as blue, red, green, etc I had smokeless powder burned so 'as to produce a flame, which I observed with the glasses In turn, and none of them gave good results. Finally I tried the violet glass, and through It the llame came out in bold relief. It is a very simple experiment, but it is capable, of course, of very practical application In the field where the enemy is using smokeless powder. "The secret of the violet glass is that when leveled at a landscape It produces the Immediate effect of twilight. Under such conditions it is easy to observe the flash of a gun at a great distance or at a short distance. This glass will show a flash which would be impossible to Fee by the naked eye, even at a short distance. I think, however, that the best results will always be obtained from the use of a violet cap on a field glass or telescope. The practicability of discovering a means of revealing the flash of a smokeless powder gun was referred to me by the Ordnance Department, and I have nothing to do with the application of it for field service. The President, I believe, was interested in the subject and referred it first to the secretary of war for investigation." The practical tests of this violet glass in warfare will be made in about six weeks against the Filipinos. The Ordnance Department will send to General Otis a number of caps which can be fitted over field glasses and telescopes, and a number of goggles to be used by the men. In the interim, further experiments for the perfection of the device will be made at Fort Myer and Sandy Hook. ANOTHER ILhLSlO.N GONE. Women of the International Council Are !Vot Boadlceas. Chicago Tribune. Another illusion has been destroyed by the action of the International Congress of Women. It has been supposed that these veteran leaders of advanced womanhood were superior to the ordinary weaknesses of their ex. They have been regarded as made of stouter stuff than the average woman, and as possessing that firmness, sterness, and high resolution which enabled them to-triumph over all obstacle, and that daeh and alertness which qualified them for leaders. The world has fancied them lioadlceas, Joans and Catharines, but the spectacle they presented at Windsor Castle on Friday afternoon has dispelled this fancy. They art only ordinary women after all. The saddest feature of the spectacle is tho conduct of Miss Susan II. Anthony, who but a day or two betort atsx&ly axmounctl ttX

RTD BACKGROUND. NOTION DEPT., NEW she still had hopes for the men. But what hopes of her can men now have? Is this Susan B. Anthony who has been the leader of women so marry years, who has successfully resisted masculine blandishments, and whose slogan has been heard in every assault upon the Tyrant Man? Is it this Susan who stood at the head of a procession of women In the quadrangle of the castle and with quavering voice chanted "God Save the Queen," as the widow rode down the line and reviewed It? Is it this Susan who would never wait a minute for a man. who stood there a full half hour waiting until her Majesty should deign to appear? Is It this Susan who exultlngrly says: "What pleaded me most was when her Majesty said: 'Now, I cannot have these ladles who are visiting me return without giving them a cup of tea.' Sir Arthur Bigg, the Queen's private secretary, replied: 'But, your Majesty, they are here in hundreds.' I do not care,' said the Queen, 'if they are here in thousands. They must all have a cup of tea when they come to see me.' And we had It In the Queen's palace." But was the Queen there also? Did she gossip with Susan over the teacups? Did Susan attempt to indoctrinate her with the principles she has foyght for so long? O no. The Queen cculd not be there, for that would have been in contravention of royal etiquette. She simply ordered tea and Susan was rroud because she was there and was drinking royal tea from royal china. Undoubtedly It was good tea and Susan had stood up so long that she was In need of It, but why should she so exult over the function? Her many admirers will regret this display of feminine weakness. She has dispelled an lllustion. She is not superior to tea. Her homage can be purchased with "the drink that cheers but not Inebriates." She is not a Boadicea. She la no better than Betsy Prigg or Mrs, Thrale. Ilovr Jim Iloa-jc Hofffced the Game.
